Sheinton Street, Much Wenlock to be resurfaced

Sheinton Street, Much Wenlock  is to be resurfaced from Monday 12 to Wednesday 21 October [2026] as part of Shropshire Council’s 2026/27 resurfacing programme.

Work will be carried out from 9.30am to 4pm each day, on weekdays only. During these times a full road closure will be in place.

During the closures access to the work areas will be maintained for the following:

• Residents living within the closure, when safe to do so.
• Any businesses located within the closure, when safe.
• Pedestrians, dismounted cyclists and equestrians
• Emergency vehicles (blue light calls).

For all other traffic a signed diversion will be place. Depending on their vehicle type, road users may be able to choose an alternative diversion route.

People are asked to ensure vehicles are not parked on the road whilst the work is in progress. This will help ensure that work is completed efficiently and reduce disruption.

Work will be carried out by Kier Infrastructure on behalf of Shropshire Council.

Resurfacing is a key part of maintaining the county’s roads. It improves long-term road condition, helps prevent further structural issues, and reduces the need for smaller repairs such as filling potholes.

This year more than 90 stretches of road across Shropshire are being resurfaced by Shropshire Council, and more than 70 have been surface dressed.

All planned roadworks are subject to change due to weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances. Any changes will be displayed on the yellow advanced warning signs and on https://one.network/
